Did you ever think the Germans were humourless?

Just came across Simon Weckert and an amusing google-hack.

This reminded me of the way we'd find workarounds to make otherwise sensible systems do more interesting things.

Want to pedestrianise a road? Take a bunch of old smartphones with you. Certainly not cheap, but apparently effective.

Saw that on the news the other day. Thought it was brilliant!! There are still ways to get around the tech.

Play nice - I will delete anything I don't want associated with this blog and I will delete anonymous comments.

Why post emergent?

Why not?

Some years ago I wrote about things relating to church I thought were important then and probably still do to an extent. So many of us want to make sure stuff is right, trying to differentiate ourselves, yet also often miss the more important stuff, the bigger picture.

I watch various people doing church in different ways and wonder how much God is concerned about our 'important' bits of theology or stances we take. The church stream I was once so pleased to be part of is starting to look like every other church to me, so maybe it's time I had a little humility instead of pride at being different.
